Thanks for including my New York post in the round-up. I’m thinking I should follow my own advice when I’m home as well as schedule a trip to Kew Gardens or Richmond Park.

Yes – travel writers are terrible about following their own advice – myself included sometimes!
I love Richmond Park especially that spot with the clear view all the way back into London.
